Presenting a magnificent, captivating domain, less than 2 and a half hours from Calais; it’s ideal for a couples’ or just-angling holiday, with the benefits of a really comfortable, tastefully decorated gite. The lake is slightly over 1 acre and perfect for 2 anglers. You can set your rods up right outside the gite and easily prospect the entire lake! The smaller size of this lake allows you easily to catch some beauties. Don’t assume that a small lake means small carp; on the contrary, these carp have a maximum weight of around 44 lbs, with the average being around 20 lbs and you will be astonished at the number weighing in at 30 lbs.
The 1-acre lake is perfectly square, measuring 75m x 75m and offers an excellent perspective for the angler in spite of its small size. With only 2 anglers on the lake, you can easily and quickly find the most prolific areas. You may also fish from the magnificent jetty and still be near your family.
The number and the weight of the carp is impressive for a lake this size. The record is fixed (for the moment) at 44 lbs and it’s rare to catch a carp weighing under 15 lbs. There are some very combative grass carp. You will have catch after catch as the difficulty level is not too high here.

August 1, 2020 at 9:25 pmWhat a fabulous place to stay for a week. Enjoyed the tranquility of Boreal so very much, the abundant wildlife was a real bonus on top of the fishing wish meant an idyllic stay for thr anglers and non anglers alike. Whilst we didn’t catch a monster, we enjoyed the fishing immensely. The accommodation was great, although I think you should mention the ladder required to access bedroom in main accommodation for the more immobile. That said a fabulous week and we plan to return next year.
